what if they, like most students, dont have a tutor?

they just don't like it when you bug them with a question the can't answer

this is annoying. ever had it happen to you when the question was actually content that should be covered according to the syllabus? thats the worst

my cafs teacher is the exact same
although honestly, in cafs i dont think it really needs much explaination.

No I agree it doesnt need much explaination - just some of the kids in the class would prefer to be smoking pot then being there - they are the ones who need it explained 20 times.

Questions are ok if relevant, but again, a class of 24 can't have everyone asking questions. If someone doesn't understand something, then they should seek help, but not disturb anyone else's learning process. If that makes sense.

Agree.
If you know what you're asking is relevant, but thus far unanswered, go ahead and ask in class. That's not something I'd classify as bugging.
But if you go off onto a completely unrelated tangent, and persist even once it has been dismissed, that's when you're crossing the line.

Also - Don't be one of those people who read something, and then ask a question about it to prove to everyone they're smart...it doesn't work and makes you look even more stupid.

Agree again.
Do not, I repeat, do not be one of these people. Get over yourself, we all know what you're doing, and we all knew whichever fact you're referring to before you did. So shut up

Albert Einstein was a teacher-bugger. He constantly pestered them with any questions that came to mind, and kept pursuing them until he got a satisfactory understanding.

Im thinking of the application of this in the classroom. Is this acceptable? I can see that doing this to a modest amount could be quite helpful (i.e if you don't know something, to raise the question immeadiatly). Do teachers appreciate this 'enthusiasm', or are they annoyed by it? What do you think?

depends on the teacher. some don't mind, some encourage it, some get pissed off by it - i hate this type of teacher the most, lazy shits...

Thus it's always good to do a bit of googling or forum asking beforehand.

lol theres this one kid in my eco class and he always starts his questions with "this might be off topic" and sure enough it is, and then there are the people that ask so many questions, attempting to understand the concepts, and they still dnt get it. i find that particularly amusing to watch
